The advantages Kirkland may have over Williams are not clear cut ones. He has a little better power, not a better chin, and a little better physical power. The advantages Paul has are more decisive: Height, reach, workrate, stamina, experience, etc. I just think it's too much for Kirkland to overcome, despite his pressure.
You counted 2, I counted 4. But thats only the punches I consider "clean". But bottom line is PW still showed average defense.
Did I say he has better power or even chin? It's pretty obvious he's physically much stronger than Paul though.:smoke
By Ta Ta you mean Hatton? PBF is a boxing genius, a wizard.. far from what Williams is. Kirkland would be able to impose himself on Paul, by staying in his chest all night long, it would be a wear and tear battle.
Ah ok sorry, I did not know that Still, my point stands. PBF is on a different level defensively, he's a wizard.. Williams is not even close defensively.
Williams defense is weak. His opponents are just hesitant to take those offensive risks with him cause of his size. His defense is really his reflexes.
finally a reason fo me to care about Paul Williams! Yes a good fight one that I would anticipate and actually get excited about
I wouldn't even put kirkland in the same sentence as williams right now. But a fight I would like see in a year or so is Kirkland vs Daniel Jacobs
I think Williams will be in a tough fight and a dangerous one too. Kirkland is the new mike tyson except better. Fast, powerful, iron chin and great stamina. I think Paul takes it by UD though. Paul is a monster too.
